Unit 3195

Category: layer    dug in 1998

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: room fill 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous

Dimensions: 2.80 m x 1.30 m x c. 22 cm deep 

Description: same as / copied from 2844 

Discussion: Room fill, 2nd half of space 112.

Compact homogeneous layer and well mixed deposit - fairly sterile of occupation and artefactual debris. Source of material must be from elsewhere where it was broken up or mixed - what about through a sieve system?

The compaction of 'clean' appearance (similar to infill in space 109 and 113) may have been the levelling deposit for construction of the floors. 

Recognition: structural debris infill (plaster and brick) defined by S & N walls 

Definition: room fill 

Execution: arbitrary layer by trowel and handpick 

Condition: dry & crumbly 

Consistency: moderlately loose 

Colour: 10 YR 8/1 white 

Texture: clayey silt 

Bedding: massive 

Inclusions: flecks of small charcoal, bone rare 

Post-depositional Features: pits (?) / deposits (2775), (2855) 

Basal Boundary: sharp, clear & flat, anthropogenic

Finds Room Information:

All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below.

X Finds Material: nothing recorded
